What does Ambre Liquide smell like?

Longevity is rated good and sillage moderate. Most voters pick winter and autumn, and it sits most comfortably in the evening or on a night out. Votes for masculine and feminine are close, so it reads somewhere in between.

Frankincense, myrrh and styrax build a resinous body, and vanilla softens and sweetens it. Spices and cistus absolute add warmth, damask rose brings a floral edge, and the aromatic notes give it a green breath. Bvlgari Le Gemme - Garanat and Buchoed Rosa Nigra have a close profile.
